NewWhat this survey doesn't make

Fri, 06/24/22

What this survey doesn’t make clear is whether the individual is actively partcipating in this lifestyle. Also, are all of the LGBTQ+ the same? Two letters after the “+” comes “A”. Someone who is asexual or not interested in participating in sexual activities. Not sure if someone who is single and not attracted to sex is the same as a practicing lesbian.

NewSo much lumping

Mon, 06/27/22

Yes, there is so much unhelpful lumping together in these things. A really huge distinction from a biblical point of view is the difference between what you’re inclined to do and what you actually do… temptation vs. sin. The distinction is completely ignored pretty much everywhere.

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.
